The vase (shape) was designed by Alessandro Mendini in 1992 for the "100% MAKE UP" project. He created the Proust decoration for the exhibition "Italy - Germany 4:3 / 50 Years of Italian and German Design" at the Bundeskunsthalle Bonn in June 2000. Only two vases were produced for the exhibition. To commemorate the 100th anniversary of ALESSI (1921-2021), the vase is available in a limited edition of 999 pieces worldwide.

The lid and base are decorated with real gold, a process still carried out by hand today. The vase is then fired and the gold is cold-brushed again.

Number 378/999

The "white" and "gold" vases in the pictures are originals from 1992.
